To No One’s Surprise, The Jackbox Party Pack 3 Coming in Autumn 2016

Coming as a surprise to pretty much nobody, Jackbox Games will be following up The Jackbox Party Pack (2014) and The Jackbox Party Pack 2 (2015) with The Jackbox Party Pack 3, to be released in the fall of 2016.

While we toyed with other names for this collection of party games — Koala Saga,Happy Birthday Mom, and Tokyo Blood, to name a few — we decided that The Jackbox Party Pack 3 works best. Also, all we had to do was change the “2” to a “3” in our marketing materials from last year.

So, what games are in The Jackbox Party Pack 3? It’s a secret… for now. Also, we haven’t totally decided. However, we can tell you two things:

There are some brand new, never-before-seen games.

We aren’t going to put Drawful 2 (coming Spring 2016) in the pack and annoy everyone who bought it as a stand-alone game.

Stay tuned to @jackboxgames and this blog as we will be announcing the games in the next few months.

You guys should make a stand-alone game where there is one player making his way through a dungeon, and the other players decide what happens to that player. Deciding his/her’s weapons, spawning enemies and such, I think that would be fun!

I loved the game You Don’t Know Jack on PC and used to play with my kids when they were toddlers. Loved playing the Jackbox games with my now teenagers at PaxEast 2016. Played it all this past Memorial Day weekend on my one kids computer who wont share now with the other. Any chance at a discount code to play it? Thanks either way.

Can you please figure out a way to incorporate all of the party packs into 1 game? It is kind of annoying having to switch party packs if I want to switch games. I bought 1 and 2 and now this will be even more annoying with this 3rd one I’m going to buy. Perhaps start turning these into downloadable content into full blown standalone games? Love the games btw!

Hey, could you possibly make Drawful 2 a DLC for Jackbox 3? That way if someone hasn’t bought it standalone but wants it as part of the pack they can still get it that way. Saves people getting annoyed?

Not going to lie. It’s super inconvenient that the party packs have not been consolidated and that drawful 2, a fan favourite is doomed to be a standalone. Working towards a unified platform with a dlc model should be jackbox’s ultimate goal. That or release a greatest hits party pack that cuts out mediocre games like earwax and lie swatter.
